testing

Hello we have 4 pet fallow deer and looking for advice on how to restrain them for blood testing. We need to transport them as we are moving. Thank you

Had a question form while I was cruising down the road this weekend. Maybe you all can help me with the answer before I have to do a ton of Google searches. Why have states chosen to hunt live deer rather than test the animals killed on roadways?

who does dna testing and what is the usual cost

It was just getting my goat today on what we have to test on the CWD program.  A thought just came to me about this.  My question is why do we have to test any more that the State we live in.  We should not have to test any more than the DNR does.  If 1 or 2 percent is good enough for them it...

What is the name of the company who tests for pregnancy in whitetails? Thank you!

I know you cant move deer out of state after your tb anniversary date. My question is once you start tb testing does the whole herd need completed before any deer can be sold. And if so do you need to wait for the results back on that deer or the whole herd.

Im in Missouri was planning on doing TB and Brucc testing for the first time in a couple weeks. How long does it usually take you guys to get your test results back after you send it off.

Had a fellow deer farmer ask me if Telazol or BAM was better proven for not aborting fawns while TB testing this year.   I have always used the Telazol/Zxylazine mix without any issues, but would like your advice.   Thanks!

After TB testing yesterday woke up to find my Hardcore/big Guy 1 1/2 year old Doe dead:(:(:(:(

Wow!!!! I guess its good that they are but I really dont understand the logic here. So they make us test and destroy EVERY animal if we have a positive but they quit testing as many animals because its already there!!!!!!!!!!! They can manage it and we can't????????? Rhonda more ammunition for...

The blood TB testing was approved in Wisconsin. Does anyone have any feedback regarding the blood test? Our state vet said there are more positive markers coming back throughout the US up by 1%. Now we are not sure it we should stick with the old "skin" TB testing or take our chances with the...

Morning fellow deer farmers I have a question this is my testing year and I was wondering if the state of Indiana is using the blood teat or do we still have to check them 3 days later. Thanks and I hope all the fawns are healthy. Jim

Where can I send a sample of my feed to be tested?

This email was recently authored by our State CWD Program Coordinator. I'm sharing this with everyone just to make sure that I understand it correctly, since tensions here in MO have been high, and EHD deaths have been, too. The way I decipher this is that if you have 2 deaths that your vet...
